Description
Hello 👋
**Device model, version and app version**
Model Name: Apple M3 Pro
macOS Version: Tahoe 26.1
App Version: 2025.11.2 (2025.1537)
Safari Version: Version 26.1 (21622.2.11.11.9)
**Home Assistant Core Version**
2025.12.5
**Describe the bug**
On the macOS companion application, when I try to speak with assist, I get a "No text recognized" error.
I've looked at the logs and I see this error that seems related:
```
Enregistreur: homeassistant.components.cloud.stt
Source: components/cloud/stt.py:119
intégration: Home Assistant Cloud ([documentation](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/cloud), [problèmes](https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22integration%3A+cloud%22))
S'est produit pour la première fois: 12:04:07 (6 occurrences)
Dernier enregistrement: 12:04:21
Voice error: Error processing fr-FR speech: 400 Invalid HTTP request.
```
I've tried using the website version via Chrome and it correctly works.
I also tried changing my microphone, switching from an USB one to the built-in one. While USB is failing, built-in is correctly picked-up.
The permission for microphone access are correctly set.
**To Reproduce**
Open the app, click the assist microphone icon and talk to it.
**Expected behavior**
Voice recognition should work.
